The FUBAR party has killed itself at birth without any intervention from anyone else

You seriously have no understanding of your history yes violent protests happened but most historians regard their impact as negative and prolonging the struggles not what brought resolution. But of course those who perpetrate the myth of direct action will claim otherwise. Facts say different.

What is asinine is to not understand that violent behaviour and criminal damage perpetrated by trans people gets used as a weapon against all trans people labelling everyone as trans extremists and then those actions are used as an excuse to take rights away.

Sue Pascoe @suepascoe001.bsky.social · 13h

Violence didn’t achieve anything for them merely set back their causes whilst the non-violent protesters made progress. Violence makes noice but it’s not what changes minds. Never has never will. Violence is for people who can’t think of better things to do.

I don’t care if Bindel is a violent moron it gives no excuse for trans people to engage in violent disorder and criminal damage which tars all trans people as violent extremists to the detriment of everyone.

I think you need to go and do your due diligence on this. I know for a fact that the figures for one of the clinics is 100% inflated.

Millicent is the one with her statue in Parliament Square and everyone remembers Martin Luther King and Gandhi. Who remembers the violent mob? No one.

Except they didn’t get the vote did they. The Suffragists were the main movers and shakers. Peaceful Actions They Took included - The Suffrage Pilgrimage (1913): Thousands of women marched peacefully from across Britain to Hyde Park. These women believed “Better is wisdom than weapons of war,”

You seriously don’t know your history the non violent civil rights movement led by both of them were the pivotal factors behind progress of rights in both America and India. Same with Millicent Fawcett for women in Britain

It is criminal damage and the assertion that trans people are violent extremists hurts all trans people.

Sue Pascoe @suepascoe001.bsky.social · 20h

You really don’t know your history, violent acts mostly have set back the civil rights movements they purport to assist as Martin Luther King and Gandhi proved.

Santander blocked me from investing in XRP—a legal digital asset used by 300+ banks worldwide. With the SEC just about to approve XRP ETFs.

No fraud. No scam. Just a bank deciding I can’t use my own money to invest in.
UK banks shouldn’t get to decide which legal assets we’re allowed to access.

Sorry violence and criminal damage achieves nothing except to paint trans people as violent extremists. This is fundamentally against the interests of every trans person. The vast majority of trans people wish to live in peace and harmony with others.

Since when does drunk people pissing in the street and making fools of themselves and taking sickies the next day help growth?

The “golden rule” is economically coherent in principle, offering a structured approach to balancing fiscal restraint with growth. However, its success depends on credible savings, effective targeting, and public trust—all of which remain uncertain

Data was released today by the UK Health Security Agency, which shows a decrease in HIV diagnoses in 2024.

However, we need to go "further and faster" to reach the goal of ending new cases by 2030.

New HIV diagnoses are decreasing, but England is still not on track to end new HIV cases.

Leaving the ECHR would be a reckless assault on British values. It won’t fix deportations but will strip rights, breach peace deals, and damage trade. We’d lose protections won in cases like Hillsborough, LGBTQ+ rights, and press freedom. Britain must not follow Russia and Belarus.

This is bad data and highly misleading. This report should be withdrawn

It is illegal to make malicious communications and conduct harassment of individuals. You have made unfounded allegations of criminal wrongdoing against a former prime minister @conservatives.bsky.social
